Altinbas – “Voyage” (Token) [January 24, 2025]

Altinbas, a Turkish artist based in Belgium, continues to prove greater consistency, a higher level of mastery, and a constant evolution of his technical and creative skills with each release. As a result of years of hard work, the DJ/producer has become one of the most relevant figures in the Belgian techno music scene.

With releases on reputable labels such as Token, Sk_eleven, Non Series, and Float, Altinbas is also the creator of Observer Station and co-curator of the imprint label of Fuse club in Brussels, where he holds a residency as a DJ.

On this Voyage EP, listeners can expect a moody, atmospheric journey through all the tracks. The release contains mysterious, universal tones that are subtly reminiscent of classic tracks from the old days, and it has a slightly psychedelic edge, with warm chromatic harmonies tying it all together.

Each track is rich and unique, yet coherent in its elements. 

They are solid, well-crafted compositions, filled with carefully tuned distortions and elaborate rhythms. The EP balances timeless, classic harmonies with dissonant elements in a way that feels fresh and dynamic.

This EP perfectly embodies the spirit of Token Records, which since its inception in 2007, has been dedicated to delivering dancefloor gems while exploring and setting new directions in the scene. The label’s modern approach to timeless sounds remains both introspective and intellectual, and Voyage is no exception
